Like things that jiggle? Thu Tran, the somewhat unusual star of IFC's cooking show Food Party was a guest judge last Saturday night at the Jell-O mold competition in Gowanus. Sarah Lohman’s Feedbag video, above, shows Thu exploring the world of Jell-O jewelry, a Jell-O chicken, Jell-O chicken and more.

If you can't get enough of this competition, there's a whole in-depth Jell-O mold interview at Serious Eats New York.

In other Jell-O news, here's the sad story of a descendant of the wealthy Jell-O clan who last year was denied any share in the family fortune by virtue of being born out of wedlock and given up for adoption.
